United Nations Day, celebrated every year on 24 October, is an important opportunity to promote peace, security and cooperation among countries. In Greece and Cyprus, the day is celebrated with various events that focus on informing people about the goals and ideals of the organisation.
Seminars and lectures are held at universities and public bodies, and schools and NGOs often organise campaigns to raise awareness of issues such as human rights and sustainable development. In Cyprus, events usually focus on the UN peacekeeping mission on the island, highlighting the need for stability and cooperation in the region.
